Tameka Mullins Hi all!

My name is Tameka Mullins and I am a book lover and a writer. I've been on Goodreads for a while, but honestly I am just getting into the group aspect of things.

I like to read a diverse selection of books from commercial fiction to mysteries to humor and biographies. I hail from Detroit, but have lived in NYC for half of my life. I recently self published a novella and I am looking to connect with more readers.

If anyone likes going to book events I'd love to connect with you. I've met some great people through networking over good reads! Cheers!

Amit Siovitz | 2 comments Hi there!
My name's Amit, I'm an Israeli living in Germany, and recently (in September) I published my first book Where Have You Been. I'm, of course, super excited about it, and want to tell the world about it, and also make some connections with potential readers. I also recently started a blog on creative writing. It isn't professional, mostly my musings on writing, but I like it Amit's Writing Journey Would be nice if you checked it out

Gordon Kuhn (jangork) | 8 comments Hello. My name is Gordon Kuhn. I am a disabled veteran and I have been writing since serving with the Marine Corps in Vietnam. I have a true crime novel Do You Know How To Fly? about a career criminal in the Tampa Bay area of Florida. He came to Florida after being released on parole from Federal Prison where he had served 15 1/2 years for bank robbery. Shortly after his arrival he began a streak of terror among senior women who lived alone. An error with the FBI's DNA data base allowed him to remain free. His final act before being captured was the murder of a prominent local doctor's wife. He remains a suspect in another murder and several violent home invasions. This book and others written by me can be seen at www.authorgordonkuhn.com. The books can also be found on Amazon.com and through Barnes & Noble. I can be reached at gkuhnwrites@aol.com

Jordan Toney | 5 comments Hello, all!

My name is Jordan, and I've been writing for years but just now developed an interest in self publishing. I just recently published my first book, Pause/Silence/Laughter: And Other Plays, and it's on Amazon and Barnes & Noble mobile.

I mostly stick to writing what I feel the most comfortable with: poetry and plays, and I have a couple projects lined up that I'll hopefully be ready to publish soon!

Glad to be here.

T.H. Simon | 8 comments Hi everyone, my name is T.H. Simon. I've been writing books for years now, but have just recently decided to self-publish them. I'll be publishing a new book every six months. I have the first ten fully planned (not sequels - varying genres, characters and stories - but 'connected' in ways). My first book, The Untold Legend, was just published in the Kindle Store. More information about my writing can be found at my website: https://thsimonbooks.com/

Thanks! Nice connecting with you as well! It's always cool to meet people with interests in plays especially, as that's definitely one of my passions.

Romance Rehab | 3 comments Hello, all!

I'm Jennifer, and my new blog is called Romance Rehab. The goal is simple: crush the romance stigma once and for all. So, for every romance I read, I'll let you know if I think it helps crush the romance stigma or perpetuate it. I hope all you romance authors and lovers out there will stop by so we can talk about all things romance!

Gerry O'Malley (GerryOMalley) | 2 comments Hi all,

My name is Gerry O'Malley and I only joined Goodreads yesterday so I'm a total newbie.

I really enjoy writing having recently published a novel called 'I am you' with a fellow Goodreads member, Ana Rangel, see www.iamyoubook.com.

Goodreads seems like a great facility and I look forward to exploring it and making some Goodread friends.

Faidra-Foteini Petaniti (faidra13) | 7 comments Hi everyone! My name is Fany and I've been a huge bookworm for years. Ever since I can remember myself, I've been with a book in my hands. I am Greek but the language I enjoyed reading the most is English, and my favourites genres are fantasy (all kinds, really), horror, crime-mystery and young adult-mostly dystopia oriented themes. Some of my favourite authors are Stephen King, Clive Barker and J.K Rowling. Lately I've written and published my first book in English, but since all of my friends are either Greeks or Germans (I work as a nurse in Berlin the last three years), it's kind of hard to find the right reading crowd. So I thought, there is nothing better than introducing myself to a bunch of passionate bibliophiles, who might appreciate my work. I feel much better knowing that such a community exists. I hope you all bring me luck!

Mallory De man | 1 comments Hi All,

My name is Mallory de Man, I'm 20 and Dutch (but I'm not quite sure I'm allowed to say that as I've lived abroad most of my life) I'm currently living in Swansea, Wales.

I love reading. It is one of my favourite things to do and definitely gets me through most of my days. I decided to share that love by writing a blog. On my blog I will review books but also write articles that are related to reading and books, I recently wrote an article on the benefits of reading as well as 10 books to read in February.

My blog link is www.malloryreadsblog.wordpress.com

Check out my blog and leave a comment, I'd love to hear from you guys. Feedback is always appreciated.

Love Mallory x

Thomas Cape (ThomasCape) | 3 comments Hi everyone!

I’m Thomas Cape, and I’m from the sunny South West of England. I’ve been on Goodreads a while, but I’m only just getting to grips with it :D

I recently published my debut novel Double Elephant, a mystery thriller revolving around the apparent suicide of an investigative journalist. The book is set in Devon and London and explores themes of conspiracy, paranoia, anxiety and insecurity.

I’m hoping to meet some interesting characters on this forum, hear about some great new books, write some reviews, and hopefully get some reviews of my own!

My blog is at www.failedtstate.co.uk and I tweet @ThomasCape77

All the best!

Rae Louise (raelouiseauthor) | 4 comments Hello everyone - I'm Rae and I've just released my debut horror novel, The Fear. Prior to this I had a short story published in a dark anthology about animals, which was great being able to combine the subjects that I'm most passionate about. I'm looking forward to meeting new people here, giving and receiving some reviews and finding some great reading recommendations!
